AS Roma are making progress in their pursuit of Jadon Sancho, but TEAMtalk understands that a deal for the Manchester United outcast is far from done.

AS Roma are in talks with Manchester United over a permanent deal for Jadon Sancho, sources have told ESPN.

Roma have made an offer worth £20million (€23.2m, $27.1m) to sign Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho on a permanent transfer. The bulk of the Italian club’s offer is a fixed upfront fee, which is inclusive of add-ons, but there is an acknowledgement that it would be a tricky deal to complete.
